Early Rising

During winter, there are few times when I can get a good view of a sunrise . Many times, it is because the sunrise is behind some evergreens in our yard. Since I’m not usually ready to get out into the cold so early in the day, I’m never satisfied with any attempts at capturing these events.

This particular morning, everything was just right!

Early Morning Sky

A few minutes after the sunrise faded, the sky was a gorgeous blue, giving sharp contrast to the contrails left behind by planes. Once in awhile, it is quite worthwhile getting an early start to the day!
